Both are just trivial wrappers around assertIsTag to make these lookups

I *thought* I was being clever with the (cdr (member …)) call, but
somehow completely forgot that *posix-argv* and
*command-line-argument-list* are equivalent to argv, so they also
contain the program name as the first element. Dropping that made
argument parsing completely break down, so let's revert back to the
older solution which works quite well.

This is useful if a derivation depends on depot.path (e. g. if it wants
to import depot at runtime). Usually this means that on every depot
commit (or even worse, every change of .git on a local machine), this
derivation has to be rebuild. By using sparseTree you can instead depend
on a stripped down version of depot which only contains the bits you
actually depend on, avoiding unrelated rebuilds.

CCL and SBCL create executables by dumping their image. As a
consequence, some part of the respective compiler is embedded in the
resulting executable which is executed and loads the image. For CCL and
SBCL this piece of software seems to unconditionally parse arguments
which can't be prevented since it happens before any lisp is loaded.
Luckily in both cases the parsing stops at `--`, so we can just pass
this via the wrapper — we just need to work around the problem that this
will of course be left in argv and confuse any later code. This can be
rectified by deleting everything prior to the first `--` in the global
argument list on startup in both cases.
In cases we do want to pass arguments to the image loader, we can use
the special NIX_BUILDLISP_LISP_ARGS environment variable which is
understood by the wrapper.
Note: This fix doesn't interfere with ECL since it is not using the
wrapper script at the moment.
Fixes b/136.

Instead of using a string to refer to an internal set defined in
buildLisp, we just expose the relevant sets (as nix.buildLisp.sbcl,
nix.buildLisp.ecl, …) and receive them as the `implementation`
argument directly. This has several advantages:
* It becomes easier to extend buildLisp, even for downstream users:
Since you can just pass your own set, there's nothing stopping you
from adding support for another implementation in a downstream
derivation without having to edit the buildLisp file in any way which
is great if you're using e. g. builtins.fetchGit to import it.
* Users can mess with the implementation set by changing out some parts
of it for customization purposes. Note that currently the sets use a
lot of self-references which aren't even bound by a fix-point, so to
make this work smoothly, we'd need to add some overriding mechanism.
* The buildLisp code becomes quite a bit clearer. Since we're now always
dealing with the implementation set, the confusing distinction between
`impl`, `impl.name` and `implementation` no longer exists. `impl` is
now exclusively an abbreviation of `implementation` (we could make
this more consistent in the future even).

This adds support for Clozure's CL implementation to buildLisp. This is

otherwise.
* //3p/lisp/physical-quantities: Update to a new bug fix release which

failing due to a double definition.

Adds ECL as a second supported implementation, specifically a statically
linked ECL. This is interesting because we can create statically linked
binaries, but has a few drawbacks which doesn't make it generally
useful:
* Loading things is very slow: The statically linked ECL only has byte
compilation available, so when we do load things or use the REPL it is
significantly worse than with e. g. SBCL.
* We can't load shared objects via the FFI since ECL's dffi is not
available when linked statically. This means that as it stands, we
can't build a statically linked //web/panettone for example.
Since ECL is quite slow anyways, I think these drawbacks are worth it
since the biggest reason for using ECL would be to get a statically
linked binary. If we change our minds, it shouldn't be too hard to
provide ecl-static and ecl-dynamic as separate implementations.
ECL is LGPL and some libraries it uses as part of its runtime are as
well. I've outlined in the ecl-static overlay why this should be of no
concern in the context of depot even though we are statically linking.
Currently everything is building except projects that are using cffi to
load shared libaries which have gotten an appropriate
`badImplementations` entry. To get the rest building the following
changes were made:
* Anywhere a dependency on UIOP is expressed as `bundled "uiop"` we now
use `bundled "asdf"` for all implementations except SBCL. From my
testing, SBCL seems to be the only implementation to support using
`(require 'uiop)` to only load the UIOP package. Where both a
dependency on ASDF and UIOP exists, we just delete the UIOP one.
`(require 'asdf)` always causes UIOP to be available.
* Where appropriate only conditionally compile SBCL-specific code and
if any build the corresponding files for ECL.
* //lisp/klatre: Use the standard condition parse-error for all
implementations except SBCL in try-parse-integer.
* //3p/lisp/ironclad: disable SBCL assembly optimization hack for all
other platforms as it may interfere with compilation.
* //3p/lisp/trivial-mimes: prevent call to asdf function by substituting
it out of the source since it always errors out in ECL and we hardcode
the correct path elsewhere anyways.
As it stands ECL still suffers from a very weird problem which happens
when compiling postmodern and moptilities:

originally has been renamed to `repl`.
Since some things won't build with all implementations, we introduce a

created, but won't prevent the passthru attrs from being created to

Both the deps and srcs arguments may now have special “filter sets” in
the lists they receive as arguments. When building, buildLisp checks if
such sets either have a attribute named like the current implementation
or a "default" attribute. If yes, the set is replaced by the respective
attribute's value. If no, the set is removed from the list without
replacement.
This can be used to add elements for (a) specific implementation(s):
{ sbcl = buildLisp.bundled "sb-posix"; }
{ sbcl = ./sbcl/optional-sbcl.lisp; }
or to switch between files for different implementations:
# If a implementation case is missing and no default set present,
# no file will be added. Compilation will likely fail as a result.
{
ecl = ./tf-ecl.lisp;
ccl = ./tf-ccl.lisp;
sbcl = ./tf-sbcl.lisp;

{
ccl = ./ccl-quirk-impl.lisp
default = ./ansi-impl.lisp;

Concept is roughly:
* receive extra argument `implementation` that refers to the name of an
implementation or rather an attribute in an internal attribute set
telling buildLisp how to do certain build steps.
* We assume an implementation can execute lisp files as scripts and that
we can implement the following main tasks in lisp:
- Building a library (`genCompileLisp`)
- Building an executable (`genDumpLisp`)
- Loading a library dynamically (`genLoadLisp`)
Based on that we can implement:
- Running a test suite (`genTestLisp`)
- A REPL preloaded with a libraries and their dependencies (`lispWith`)
Additional attributes for implementing these parts genericly are
added as needed (`faslExt` and `runScript`).
* `genCompileLisp` no longer prints a shell script which concatenates
the individual FASLs. Instead it does the step previously done by the
shell script itself. In essence `genCompileLisp` now writes a lisp
script which compiles and installs the library to build.
This will allow us extra freedom for different implementations, e. g.
for ECL we'll want to build a object file archive additionally to fasl
files in order to be able to link proper executables.
* `genLoadLisp` and `genTestLisp` are almost generic (the former just
sometimes would need to use different file extensions), but we
integrate them into the implementation “API” to facilitate minor
tweaks we need to do like the `fasc` extension for ECL's native FASL
files.

Go 1.16 makes "go list all" not work. "go list std" is what we should be

When a file is added to the depot tree that is picked up by read-tree,
but it’s not a function like ({...}: {}), `readTree` will fail on the
function application, leading to a bad error message.
We can do slightly better, by checking the type and throwing a nicer
trace message.
`assertMsg` is copied from `nixpkgs/lib/assert.nix`, since at this
point we don’t have a reference to the lib.
There is another evaluation failure that can happen, which is when the
function we try to call does not have dots; however, nix does not
provide any inflection capabilies for checking whether a function
attrset is open (`builtins.functionArgs` only tells us the attrs it
mentions explicitly). Maybe the locality of the error could be
improved somehow.

Previously, for types defined using typedef (like all primitive types)
type.checkType would return a boolean. This is largely fine since in
most places `type.checkToBool (type.checkType x)` or similar is used.
However, some functions actually take type.checkType up on the promise
that it returns a set of the form:
{
ok = <bool>;
err = <option string>;
}
This is the case for restrict which has checkToBool = v: v.ok; and will
generate a proper set except if `t.checkToBool (t.checkType v) == false`
in which case it will return t.checkType v. If t was a primitive type or
defined using typedef, previously `t.checkType v` would be a boolean
which meant as soon as (restrict …).checkToBool was called on a restrict
checkType result in cases where the wrapped type didn't match, an
unrelated error would be thrown:
nix-repl> with nix.yants; restrict "foo" (_: true) int "lol"
error: value is a boolean while a set was expected, at /home/lukas/src/depot/nix/yants/default.nix:38:39
This is fixed by making typedef return a proper set from checkType and
adjusting its checkToBool accordingly.
Unfortunately I don't think we can easily add test cases for this except
by using recursive nix or VM tests as there is no way to introspect
error messages.

Nix unfortunately has terrible escaping syntax: If something is an
escape sequence it does not know, like \0, it just swallows the
backslash and returns the second character (byte) as is (yes,
"\0" == "0" is true). This created the following bug in nixFileName
which should have resulted in at least a parse error: "(.*)\.nix" is
the same as "(.*).nix" which meant that nixFileName matched anything
that is at least 4 characters long and ends in "nix". This lead to
readTree creating double attributes when directories are involved or
attributes for non-nix files.

This adds the star of NixCon 2017 from vuizvui, slightly reformatted and
now using yants. While it has some flaws, I realized that it is ideal to
run the tests of rustSimple{Lib,Bin} where the normal and the -tests
variant would have to be rebuilt if either the tests or the library /
executable itself changes.

By using an extremely trivial derivation we can ensure that it will not
throw if evaluated using deepSeq. When using stdenv.mkDerivation or
similar at some point something will most likely throw or generate some
kind of error which is alright in the context of nixpkgs, but makes
testing yants harder than you'd think it should be.

Refactor assertEq and assertThrows to be implemented in terms of a more
generic assertBool to reduce code duplication and ease adding new assert
types.
To preserve meaningful error messages AssertResult is changed slightly:
nope-eq and nope-throw have been replaced by a single nope branch which
contains an AssertErrorContext which contains error information. To
implement an assert assertBoolContext (which is not exposed) can be
used: It takes an AssertErrorContext which is returned in case of an
error and a boolean determining whether the assert was successful.
The currently possible AssertErrorContext are:
* should-throw: error result of assertThrows, formerly nope-throw
* not-equal: error result of assertEq, formerly nope-eq

Introduces the concept of a “tag”, a single-keyed attrset which
annotates a nix value with a name.
This can be used to implement tagged unions (by implying the list of
possible tags is well-known), which has some overlap with how
`nix.yants` does it.
However, the more fascinating use-case is in concert with a
so-called discriminator, `match` and hylomorphisms.
The discriminator can take a nix value, and add tags to it based on
some predicate.
With `match`, we can then use that information to convert the
discriminated values again.
With `hylo`, we can combine both the “constructive” discriminator step
with the “destructive” match step to recursively walk over a nix data
structure (based on a description of how to recurse, e.g. through attrset
values or list values), and then apply a transformation in one go.
